La Quete Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Siem 

Cover art for La Quete lyrics by Jacques Brel

Although originally an English song by Mitch Leigh, composed for the 1965 Broadway musical Man of La Mancha, to me it is about the quest for true love. A love so perfect it might not even exist, but my heart demands that I keep searching for it anyway. Through pain and broken relationships, always moving on to chase that impossible star. It's the curse of being a romantic dreamer I suppose. And like Don Quixote, possibly quite mad ;)
